Installed a new spoiler and clear side markers

Getting my 2004 manual G back today with a new AIT fiberglass lip spoiler installed, and recently put on clear side markers sadly with the bump. Still on the hunt for the rare flat clear side markers so if anyone is selling any message me plzzzz.

Because fiberglass is very brittle and any little scrape, bump or impact can break it apart or shatter it. Not a great material for things that sit low on the car, polyurethane is a much better material for that.

Been forever since I've posted here, but use the site regularly. I've suffered the dreaded cracked dash since I've bought the car. So I went and pulled a dash from a salvage g35. Same part number for 05-07 g35s. So I wrapped the dash in 4 way stretch vinyl using DAP weldwood industrial grade contact cement. Fellas, I couldn't be more happy with the way it turned out. Hoping to dedicate one of my days this weekend to swap them out. Hoping it will hold up to the Florida heat. Will keep you updated
P.s: I did this over a month ago just to let it fully cure and make sure it would hold. So far so good

I was able to get the dash down to the bare foam. Funny how it happen actually. I wasn't happy with the results I got from wrapping vinyl over the original vinyl, so I pulled the wrap off to see how well it held. Well it held so good that it pulled the original vinyl off with it. So I got a second chance to do it the RIGHT way.


used jack stands to support it. took out the airbag to make it MUCH lighter to work with (excuse the messy garage, my brother moved out of his apartment and is storing his **** in my garage
